Aims: the purpose of this study was to explore whether typically developing children learn a motor skill better if the skill is first learned by the proximal motor apparatus and then transferred to the distal motor apparatus. Methods: thirtyone typically developing children were randomly assigned to either proximal or distal muscle group. the children in the proximal muscle group learned to draw a large pattern using the proximal muscle groups (shoulder and elbow) and transferred the skill to the distal muscle group (wrist and hand) by reproducing a similar but smaller pattern. the children in the distal muscle group did the opposite. A two-way ANOVA is used for data analysis. results: the results showed that the interaction between the main factor of direction and condition yielded significance. Also, skill was transferred in both in proximal to distal (P2D) and distal to proximal (D2P) children group. Error units were decreased between original learning (OL) and transfer Kinsuk Maitra1, Martin S.

Future study should focus on indicating if it would help for child with intellectual disabilities or motor impairments to learn drawing tasks.
